The group had a complex structure and at that time it had 347 group companies out of which almost 50%were registered overseas. The board of IL&amp;FS was sacked and a committee headed by Uday Kotakwas constituted which has been working towards a resolution process. Some assets have been sold and around INR 50,000 crores worth of assets have been put on the block. The term of Uday Kotakas non-executive director on the board of IL&amp;FS has been extended till October 2, 2020.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_big_culprits\"><\/span><strong>The big culprits<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>After the IL&amp;FS debacle, the situation worsened when <a href=\"https:\/\/kuvera.in\/explore\/funds\/dsp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">DSP Mutual Fund<\/a> sold off INR 300 crore worth of NCDs of Housing Finance Company <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Dewan_Housing_Finance_Corporation\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Dewan Housing Finance Limited (DHFL)<\/a> amidst news of severe liquidity issues. The share price of DHFL crashed 42% on September 21, 2018, causing panic in other Housing Finance Companies (HFCs) and NBFC stocks.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>A series of downgrades followed in the coming months for several of its papers. In May 2019, it informed the stock exchanges of a possible delay in the declaration of annual results.\u00a0 It has defaulted on several debt payments during the last few months. It has sold a majority stake in some of the group companies (Aadhar Housing Finance, Avanse Financial Services Ltd)and office buildings in the process to reduce its massive debt, which runs into thousands of crores. It has shared a\u00a0draft resolution plan\u00a0with the lenders which still needs their and investors\u2019 approval. The proposal seeks to convert debt to equity while selling assets and raising additional funds.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In early 2019, another blow to Debt Funds came from the <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Essel_Group\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Essel group<\/a>, owner of ZEE Network businesses. Some Fund Houseswhich had exposure to the Essel group, were forced to withhold (stop maturity proceeds) or rollover (extend maturity date) certain FMPs. After failing to meet their debt obligations, the group entered into an agreement with lenders for rolling over the payments to September 30, 2019.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The Essel groups part of its expansion plan had invested in various road, port, power and infrastructure projects. All these projects went downhill post the liquidity crisis and the group piled on a debt of around INR 9500 crores, which it found difficult to pay. The group has since sold a stake in its flagship ZEE to Invesco Oppenheimer Fund. It has also restructured other non-media related businesses.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>As per news reports, by last week of September 2019, they have received another\u00a0extension of six months by\u00a0fund houses like Aditya Birla AMC, Franklin Templeton AMC and HDFC AMC, including others.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>The group still has close to\u00a0INR 5000 Crores as outstanding dues.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_significant_others\"><\/span><strong>The significant others<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>The others in this list which have defaulted and\/or delayed payments during this one year period and have contributed to the overall malaise are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Anil Dhirubhai Ambani (ADAG) Group<\/li>\n<li>Altico Capital India Ltd<\/li>\n<li>Cox and Kings Pvt Ltd<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Latest_entrant\"><\/span><strong>Latest entrant<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>The latest troublemaker in the financial markets Indiabulls\u00a0Housing Finance,\u00a0which had, in April 2019 announced a merger plan with the south based Lakshmi Vilas Bank\u00a0in an all-share deal.\u00a0 However, RBI had not approved of the deal and now the bank has been put under\u00a0Prompt Corrective Action (PCA) for a high level of NPAs, lack of required capital and negative returns on assets consecutively for two years.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>PCA- RBI places banks under PCA if it has concerns regarding the bank\u2019s performance and financial standing. Under PCA, banks can be restricted from opening new branches and also from paying any dividends to shareholders.

After demonetization, there was a liquidity rush with huge inflows into banks, stock markets, mutual funds, and deposit accepting NBFCs. With this newfound liquidity, many institutions started lending it to HFCs,\u00a0NBFCsand other entities which led the NBFCs to extend long term funds to the real estate sector. They were hoping to make a substantial profit by borrowing short term and lending long term to the real estate sector and to small and medium businesses. However, post the IL &amp; FS failure, these short term lenders became sceptical to issue new loans or even to roll over the existing loans. The demand for redemption soared and liquidity further dried up.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Steps_initiated_by_the_Government_Reserve_Bank_of_India\"><\/span><strong>Steps initiated by the Government &amp; Reserve Bank of India<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Relaxation in securitization norms for enhancing liquidity<\/li>\n<li>Easing of priority sector lending norms<\/li>\n<li>Implementation of a partial credit guarantee scheme<\/li>\n<li>Rate reduction \u2013 the repo rate was reduced for the\u00a0<strong>fifth consecutive time <\/strong>on October 4, 2019<\/li>\n<li>Bank recapitalization<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"PMC_Bank_debacle\"><\/span><strong>PMC Bank debacle\u00a0<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>The operations of\u00a0Punjab and Maharashtra Co-operative Bank (PMC), a large co-operative bank based in Mumbai were frozen by the\u00a0Reserve Bank of India in the last week of September 2019.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Many small co-operative banks have placed their deposits with\u00a0PMC Bankapart from individuals, housing societies, small traders &amp; enterprises.<\/li>\n<li>With the\u00a0RBIrestrictions in place, the future has become uncertain and for some small businesses, capital for running even the daily operations has vanished.<\/li>\n<li>For year ending March 2019, the bank had deposits to the tune of INR 11617 crores and an asset book of INR 8383.33 crores, out of which an exposure of INR 6500 crores (which was never reported and was fraudulently hidden) was towards the troubled real estate player\u00a0HDIL, which is facing insolvency proceedings in the\u00a0National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT).<\/li>\n<li>The promoters of HDIL group and the suspended former\u00a0MD of PMC Bank have\u00a0now been arrested.<\/li>\n<li>The RBI had initially placed a cap on withdrawals allowing only INR 1000 per person for six months, which was later increased to INR 10,000 and has now been raised to INR 25,000.
